JOSHUA ELEK: WATERCOLORS

Buttermilk Falls: #2


I bought the game Parks the other day, and was inspired by the artwork in the game. The cards contain images styled after the WPA posters for the National Parks that were created in the 1930’s.

Found at the Library of Congress

I was enamored by the designs and imagery, so I decided to try making something that fit into that design aesthetic.

I’m falling asleep as I type, (it’s 2:30) so I’ll just let you see what I came up with.

There are things I would do differently, but it’s close to what I had in mind, and that’s encouraging.

I literally can’t keep my eyes open. Covfefe.
